Visit Description

<p> </p>
<!-- Replace default by booking form content --><p>Scifest Africa, South Africa’s National Science Festival, was established in 1996 to promote the public awareness, understanding and appreciation of science, technology and innovation (STI) in South Africa. The project consists of two components, namely the National Science Festival held in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape in March every year, as well as regional and national outreach programmes implemented throughout the rest of the year. Scifest Africa identifies and designs unique interactive events and educational resources with scientific integrity to advance science, facilitate learning in an informal and non-threatening way, and provide learners with a great opportunity to discover science outside the classroom. Scifest Africa is a project of the Grahamstown Foundation, a not for profit (NPC) and public benefit organisation (PBO). The Foundation’s vision is to enrich the educational and cultural life of the people of South Africa “that all might have life and have it abundantly”. This vision is realised through the implementation science, arts, culture, heritage and tourism projects and events.</p>
